CLI font type and size options

Hello all.

When sending a printjob using lpr, I noticed the characters' vertical
size never changes regardless of cpi or lpi used. Every other options;
ie, cpi or cpi, affects the font but the charaters' vertical size
remains the same. Is this true to be the case?

Secondly, how does one specify a font type from the command-line(if possible)? One way I was trying to change font type was changing the
DefaultFont from the PPD file but that don't seem to have any effect.

Any suggestion or idea is much appreciated.

Thanks,
Angel
